Word of the Day: Inkling
Inkling has nothing to do with ink, printing, or writing.
An inkling is a feeling that something is going to happen or that something is true.
When I first started university, I had no indication of how hard I would have to work, how much I would have to write, or, most of all, how many books I would have to read to finish my degree.
Now I know.
It has been about 11 months since I started this website, and when I started, I had no inkling of how much I had to learn.
Now I know that, too.
If anyone ever asks me about going to university or creating a website, I can give them an inkling, perhaps just the slightest hint, of how much they will have to work but also an indication of how much fun they will have.
